    I think the rhyming couplet that contains an inverted sentence is

    "THY various works, imperial queen, we see,

    How bright their forms! how deck'd with pomp

    by thee!

    Thy wond'rous acts in beauteous order stand,

    And all attest how potent is thine hand."

    because a rhyming couplet contains two lines of the same length that rhyme and complete one thought, and an inverted sentence is a sentence in which the normal word order is being reverted with the verb before the subject with the predicate coming right after a clause.
